    Subject: isolation circuit
    From: "jamesneely" <neelyjame@gmail.com>
    (Please excuse the double post. I also posted this on the aeroelectric list) I have a flightline fl-760 and the manual says that both mikes go hot on transmit. That doesn't seem a like a great idea, particularly in a noisy cockpit. They mention an optional isolation relay board, but apparently they never did produce it, so I have to make up my own. The problem is that while I can solder just fine, I suck at designing circuits. Has anyone made one of these boards, or has a schematic that I can work from? or any source for buying such beast? Here's the diagram provided by Flightline: thanx, James Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=236018#236018 Attachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/fl_760_wiring_diagram_934.jpg

Power coils from fused aircraft circuit and return the coils through the tip pins of the two push to talk jacks. Connect mike audio inputs 1 and 2 through one pair of relay contacts to the two mike audio inputs to the radio. You could use only one of the inputs but there might be a problem if both talk switches are simultaneously activated. Connect the PTT radio pin through the other relay poles so that it is grounded whenever either relay is activated. Or. . . If you use voice activated intercom those features are probably built into it. Just wire the aircraft for a single mike output from the intercom. Or. . . Some microphones, mostly older ones, use a double pole switch so that the mike audio is only present when its own talk switch is pushed. They're terrible for use with an intercom. -- --> From the U S of A, the only socialist country that refuses to admit it. <--
